PD (3): 1 Hanney-Mitchell’s Bronia Daimmen. Promising pup having a pleasing head of good proportions, good front, enough depth of chest for age, lovely outline with well kept topline and well-constructed hind quarters, sound mover. BP. 2 Fleming’s Brogansian Fleetwood. Liked his head and correct front. Had the better hind quarters in this class, but preferred the body and especially the topline of the winner. Very smart dog, moved correctly fore and aft. 3 Benzden Bergamot of Monrateckel. JD (3): 1 Spall & Clark’s Llapsttam Sebastian. Compact b&t of a nice size whilst still maturing and developing still only young. Good shoulders and lovely topline into sound hindquarters. Nice front with good depth of chest. Moved very well. 2 Cummings & Blevins & Blevins’ Blevwil Buzz Lightyear. Liked his head and outline, didn’t impress in movement today. 3 Bhailekernon Ned Kelly. GD (1): 1 Morrison’s Benzden Kouros. 3 yr old B&T, with correct head having the right proportions. Good depth of chest, would have preferred a wider front and a firmer topline, and would have also liked to see more drive coming from behind. OD (5): 1 Cross & Black’s Ch Riowood Red Boots JW. A truly balanced dog. Lovely type that caught my eye immediately. lovely head and eye, correct ear set into nicely arched neck. Correct shoulder arrangement and good front, tight elbows.

Tight elbows, good ribbing, preferred hind movement of winner. (Res CC) 3 Bronia Gabriel for Wakywilks JW. Special Beginners D (1): 1 Wilkinson & Wakeham’s Bronia Donatello for Wakywilks. Liked his head and general outline, however his front movement wasn’t at its best, throwing elbows out in movement. PB (2): 1 Wilkinson & Wakeham’s Wakywilks Celestial. B&T bitch of correct size, very promising, excellent femminine head and expression, good chest and brisket, loved her front and back assemblies, correct topline, best mover in class. 2 Reynolds’ Glenariff Zesta.

NB (1): 1 Wilkinson & Wakeham’s Bronia Bijoux for Wakywilks. 12 month old which needs to settle down, couldn’t be handled on the table, would also have preferred a better topline. Good mover. LB (4): 1 Dalton’s Beachdax About Damn Time. Very smart and femminine brindle, having a gorgeous head with correct eye shape and color, lovely front & chest, great topline which she kept on the move. Loved her strongly built and angulated hindquearters, which was her winning factor here.

Stunning outline both stacked and on the move, super well angulated hindquarters – moved with purpose and drive. Loved everything about her. Delighted to award her CC & BOB.
